You feel like you’re up against something impossible, a battle you can’t win. The problem isn’t the size of the battle, it’s where your focus is. You’re looking at the fight when you should be focused on the One who’s given you the strength to endure it. Strength isn’t formed in comfort, it’s built in resistance. Stop running from the place where God is shaping you. Set your focus on the Him, not the circumstance. Worship Him through the battle, trusting He’s the one equipping you for it and through it.

Do not resist the hardships, the frustrations, the irritations, and the discomfort you are feeling. These are not attacks from the enemy; this is the Lord. Fruit comes from places of pressing. He is not crushing you, He is forming you. And fruit comes when we embrace hard things and walk out what He is dealing with.
—
Humble yourself before the Lord. Take on a serious attitude about the pride that you are seeing.
—
Joy is not something you get; it's a byproduct of the Holy Spirit living in you. (Galatians 5:22-23) God is not withholding joy from you; it's there, but what is keeping it from coming out into your life, like fruit on a tree?
